10/1/2000 - Conference papersThis paper presents an experimental investigation of an improved technique for on-line detection of induction motor stator winding degradation.
-
9/1/2000 - Conference papersThe increased effectiveness of a two-phase spray system (TPSS) over a single-phase system (SPSS) for dust suppression is reported in several laboratory studies.
-
9/1/2000 - Conference papersThe importance of controlling respirable dust and methane gas levels in underground coal mining cannot be underestimated. This paper reviews practical applications of water sprays and dust scrubbers to control respirable dust and methane gas on continu...
